flag China releases first global report on high-temperature superconducting tapes, highlighting REBCO’s potential and key challenges for wider use.

flag The Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Physics has released the world’s first strategic report on high-temperature superconducting tapes, focusing on REBCO materials, to guide large-scale deployment. flag The report identifies 10 key challenges slowing widespread adoption and highlights REBCO’s ability to operate above liquid nitrogen temperatures, reducing cooling costs compared to traditional superconductors. flag Since commercial production began in 2006, REBCO tapes have shown promise for use in fusion energy, power grids, medical imaging, and scientific instruments, though performance improvements are still needed. flag The report calls for integrated innovation across materials, manufacturing, and applications to advance from functional to high-performance use, supporting national goals in energy and technology.
